Although Li Kejun did not kill her father directly, he was still involved in the incident.

"Back then, my father suspected that Li Kejun had betrayed the clansmen. Did he find even the slightest connection?"

Yuan Mo shook his head: "No, it's just that Li Kejun went out of the clan at that time, and what attracted those villains was a kind of divine Gu called Ice and Snow Gu. This Gu can freeze a person for at least three years, during which time they can survive without eating or drinking. This Gu was just refined by my master from ancient books, and only a few people know about it. Therefore, my master can only suspect him and cannot directly convict him."

Jiang Bai nodded thoughtfully. Indeed, in such a situation, anyone could be the mole.

"After that, his behavior became more and more obvious, showing that he wanted to compete with me for the throne. That's why my master became more and more suspicious of him, but he was too afraid to suppress him due to his physical condition. In terms of talent, Li Kejun's talent was indeed no less than mine, and his strength was no weaker than mine. It's just a pity that he was good at using poison and Gu, and my master was not at ease with him."

Yuan Mo moved down from the mountain over the years and has been living a mundane life at the foot of the mountain ever since.

Lord Lico would send people to watch over him, and he had no interest in the throne anymore, so he simply let him go.

However, Yuan Mo did not expect that Jiang Bai would suddenly return.

As if struck by a sudden thought, he asked, "Have you been afflicted by the Mother-Child Gu?"

Upon hearing about the Mother-Child Gu, Jiang Bai's spirits immediately lifted: "Yes, do you know the solution?"

Yuan Mo frowned: "Hold out your hand, and I'll examine it for you."

Jiang Bairu stretched out his hand, and Yuan Mo examined it before shaking his head: "This Gu is definitely not as simple as the mother-child Gu. It may require the person who cast the Gu to remove it. Let me ask you, do you know who the mother Gu is?"

Jiang Bai pursed his lips: "The mother Gu is in my mother."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Mo immediately stood up in shock: "Impossible! This Gu can only be used on living people. If the mother Gu dies, the offspring Gu in your body should not be able to sense it."

"My mother is not dead."

"What? Master's wife isn't dead?" Yuan Mo felt weak all over.

He thought his teacher's wife had passed away long ago, which is why he had lived at the foot of the mountain for so many years without any worries.

After a long while, he murmured, "That's right. My teacher's wife has always treated Li Kejun well, so it's normal for him to spare her life. But since that's the case, the only one who could have put the Gu on my teacher's wife is him, so the Gu on your body must have been put on by Li Kejun as well."

So, could it be Li Kejun who abducted Jiang Bai? If Li Kejun had already placed the Gu poison on the two of them back then, would Master have known that his wife was poisoned by Gu?

All of this remains unsolved.

Jiang Bai shook her head; her mind was completely blank.

It's just that she was too young back then, otherwise I would have definitely taught Li Kejun a lesson!

However, it's not too late now.

"Regardless of whether he did those things before, it's a fact that he mistreated my mother and bullied my husband, forcing me to marry him. I will definitely settle accounts with him and get all the revenge I owe him!"

Seeing her ambitious words, Yuan Mo couldn't help but laugh: "Then you'd better hurry up. Over the years, Li Kejun has found many skilled craftsmen to open the treasure vault in the back mountain. It is said that he found one a while ago and has already made progress in picking the lock. When that happens, I will really be worthless. He will probably kill me to silence me the first thing he does, and I will not have a chance to help you."

Jiang Bai's face turned pale: "No, you can't die! I'll go back and think of something right now!"

Yuan Mo watched her leave in a hurry, and his face darkened.

Jiang Bai is currently under Li Kejun's control, probably because of that mother-child Gu. Although that Gu is strange, let him try to find a solution.

Jiang Bai returned to his residence, his expression revealing a coldness he could not conceal.

As soon as she entered the room, she saw Li Kejun sitting upright. He was still moving slowly and elegantly, but he exuded a cold aura.

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Bai was giving him a cold shoulder.

Li Kejun took a sip of tea: "Linluo offended you before, and I have come here to apologize."

"What crime has Your Highness committed? You are quite skilled at keeping a mistress in a golden house. It's my fault for not noticing sooner. Otherwise, I would rather die here with Zhao Yi than marry you."

Jiang Bai kept a distance from him, as if she felt extremely uncomfortable if she got any closer.

Li Kejun's face was contorted with rage. He looked up at Jiang Bai with a cold gaze and said, "Marrying that woman was not my wish. If it weren't for your father, I wouldn't have married her!"

"But you still married her in the end. Is there anything else, Your Highness? If not, I'll be resting now."

Jiang Bai gestured for him to proceed, looking at him with indifferent eyes.

Li Kejun could only get up. He wanted to leave, but then stopped: "Did you go to see Yuan Mo?"

"Yes." Jiang Bai knew he couldn't hide it from him; this was his territory, and Yuan Mo's courtyard was surrounded by his men.

"He's not a good person. You'd better stay away from him if you don't want anything to happen to your mother."

Li Kejun threw down a threat, then tossed his robes and left.

Jiang Bai spat at his retreating figure: "I wonder who's the bad guy!"

They even dared to threaten her with her mother again! What a despicable and shameless person!

After meeting Yuan Mo once, Jiang Bai never went to see him again.

But she still went down the mountain every day and quickly became one with the local people.

She was approachable and intelligent, and she quickly learned some of the art of Gu poison.

That day, looking at the chaotic street, she began her planning.

"Move this stall over there, yes, right, next to that shop, this side has better feng shui."

"Move this stone; it's blocking your wealth. How will you ever succeed in business?"

"Grandma, can I join your tea shop franchise? I guarantee your business will be booming!"

Jiang Bai found an ordinary tea shop. The tea there was quite good, so she decided to open a milk tea shop there as well.

However, the territory of the Wu tribe is narrow, and few families own cattle. Some cattle do not produce milk, so the milk source has become a problem.

However, she had other plans and wasn't in a hurry.

Some of the flavored tea drinks have more flavor than the original tea, which is enough to attract a lot of customers.

"Grandma, you haven't seen the streets outside. That long string of red lanterns looks like a dragon, it's so beautiful!"

The Wu tribe is very isolated. Only a small number of tribesmen can go out of the mountains to purchase supplies. Some ordinary tribesmen may never leave the mountains in their entire lives.

They all yearned for the outside world that Jiang Bai described, and some of them were particularly fond of her. These were the people who were dissatisfied with Li Kejun, and they fantasized about gaining Jiang Bai's favor so that they could rise to the top in one step.

Jiang Bai knew what they were thinking. Although he didn't really like their casual teasing, he couldn't do without their help in dragging Li Kejun down, so he decided to just put up with it.

"You vixen, what are you doing in the street!"

Suddenly, a somewhat familiar voice came from behind, and the words spoken were also very familiar.

In this witch clan, not many people dare to call her a fox spirit.

Jiang Bai turned around, looked at Lin Luo with a faint smile, and a hint of cunning flashed from the corner of his eyes and brows.
